About This Book
A translation into English by Richard Eden of Taisnier's book of 1562, itself largely a plagiarism of Petrus Peregrinus, "Epistola de Magnete" of c.1269. The main part was not especially necessary to navigation, being an account of the phenomena of natural magnets and a primitive compass.
